According to a new press release, the book was written from over 42 hours of new interviews, with info also coming from historical interviews and newly discovered, previously unheard interviews from Paul’s personal archive. It also contains a foreword written by Paul.

Also in the book are over 150 photographs, including some never-before-seen shots, as well as memorabilia, like handwritten lyrics and pages from Paul’s diary.
